I uploaded my 23andme data to FTDNA and I got my Myorigin results back. The following is both my y and mt results.
European: 87%
Southern Europe: 48%
Western and Central Europe: 39%
New World: 7%
Native American: 7%
East Asian: 3%
Northeast Asia: 3%
Middle Eastern: 2%
North Africa: 2%
African: 1%
West Africa: 1%
So what can you all tell me about the results that I got? Is it the average Iberian makeup? Is there a feature on MyOrigin that can separate my y and mt so I can see where each originated? Is there a feature that can show me which countries of Western and Central Europe and Southern Europe I have higher percentage in?
For me, the results show for certain that my phenotype is probably Atlanto-Mediterranid due my high percentages in both South and Western Europe. Also I look uncanny similar to the composite face of a
Atlanto-Mediterranid. The areas that Atlanto-Mediterranids cover also matches what GEDMatch always places me as; Spaniard, Portuguese and sometimes Northern Italian. My families history on both sides point to Spain with my maternal side claiming some Portuguese cousins. My father and his side of the family are red haired and I always thought of him as Atlantic Celt and 23andme does give me a some percentage British/Irish yet FTDNA doesn't. My question is am I Atlanto-Mediterranid because both my parents are or is my father Atlantid and my mother Mediterranid?
I believe I mentioned this before but again, I took a Ancestral Origin test and was given a map. It mentions how my population matches more Southern European followed by Northern European. As for my Native Region, it gives me as Northern European. So my question is, which migration of ancient Northern Europeans to Iberia does my personal information match to? With my ydna being R1b, I think the Celts. Both my y and mt show a direct lines in the UK and Northern Italy. My y dna shows two in Spain and my mt dan shows one in Germany, Hungary and Sardinia. I know continental Celts came to Spain and than the British Islands but was there ever an invasion/migration from Britain to Spain in ancient times? I also feel with the high percentage in Italy that perhaps my continental Celt ancestors came from Northern Italy, through Southern France and settled in Spain. I been mistaken for French and Italian and Argentinian before.
I would like to post my 23andme results again on the next post but which one is more useful? Speculative, Standard or Conservative? I plan to upgrade my SNPs in the future and narrow down my haplogroup. I was thinking of getting the y37 and either P312 SNP pack or M343 pack, I really don't know the difference between them other than the price. I'm a P312 and here's the tests I taken so far; [FONT=Open Sans, sans-serif, arial]
L1-, L144-, L159-, L165-, L176-, L193-, L196-, L2-, L21-, L4-, M126-, M153-, M160-, M269+, M65-, P312+, U106-, U152-. Any recommendations on which tests to get are welcomed.[/FONT]
Sorry for the long post and thank you all for all the help you have given me in the past.
